White-Glove Service
Couture Care for the Clientele of Wilkes Bashford Palo Alto
Since 1984, Alex's Dry Cleaning Valet has finished tailored clothing the way it deserves, by hand, at our atelier in San Rafael. Full-canvas jackets, soft shoulders, and fine trouser cloth are pressed to keep their shape, never crushed by a mechanical line.
For Wilkes Bashford Palo Alto clients, our white-glove valet reaches across the Peninsula. We collect from your home or office and return your suits and sport coats ready to wear, so the cloth you chose at Stanford Shopping Center stays as sharp as the day you bought it.

Common Questions
Wilkes Bashford Palo Alto Garment Care FAQ
Do you serve Palo Alto and Stanford Shopping Center clients?
Yes. Our white-glove pickup and delivery covers Palo Alto, Menlo Park, and the surrounding Peninsula. Text 415-338-9318 to schedule.
Can you preserve the shape of a canvassed jacket?
That is the heart of what we do. Each tailored piece is hand-finished so the lapel roll and shoulder line stay intact through cleaning and pressing.
Is there a storefront I need to visit?
No. Our valet comes to you. Pickup is complimentary, and your garments are returned pressed and ready to your door.
